Tacoma Audio Endeavor

I think I have right at 1 cube under there.

 

theres no real way to accurately know what you have down there is there?

 

Not an accurate way. I thought I'd try and fill it up with water one day. And it was going well until I realized the top profile isn't flat and water had a tenancy to level. Small styrofoam beads would do the trick but I'm not interested enough to buy them.

I'm estimating right at a cube...final answer

 

ill go with your estimate, as everyone can see with your amazing build, you pretty much know what your doing when it comes to the sound biz.....

 

Awww shucks, makin me blush here...

 

Nice job, I like the idea, I want my area back behind my seat and this would be ideal.

 

sub'd

Wanna make me an enclosure like that?

 

Sure, I've made one for another member. But you gotta remember, I can only make the top that bolts on. You gotta seal the bottom area and trim the metal so it fits. I can't do that for you. PM me if you're really interested.

 

The good news.....there will be a build 2.0 coming very soon.

The bad news.....it's happening because I'm an idiot

Don't tell me you broke your truck and have to replace it...

Later that day: Ohhhhh, yea I just saw the thread in 2nd Gen.

 

The HD900/5 and the Audison Bit1 got VERY wet but I think they might be ok. I took them apart and didn't see any water inside. Hope they work.

I'm going to rewire everything and change up the front stage.

 

Where did you have them mounted that they got wet? Didn't look like the back half even went underwater.

 

They were mounted one under the driver's seat and one under the passenger seat. The front foot wells were filled with water. When I got pulled out and the truck leveled all that water moved towards the back.

 

Brain fart? Its always safe to pull the boards out and dowse them in Isopropyl Alcohol (NOT rubbing alcohol) and clean it up with a horse hair brush, if you were concerned.

 

lucky bastid if they still work... here's hoping!

 

I might do some testing later tonight if I'm feeling frisky. Already pulled the boards. They look good from what I can tell.

PS: There's significantly less inside a bit 1 than you'd think there is. The chassis is where most of the weight is.

 

If theres any concern on their condition man... use the isopropyl... it will displace water as well, and it evaporates quickly.

 

If they're bone dry now is there any benefit? The boards were dry as soon as I took them apart last night. Looks like the chassis was the only thing to get wet.

 

Could be. The residue after evaporation could leave behind electrically conductive paths.
